Kate Nash - 3AM (Video)

The videos from Kate Nash keep on coming. Following the recent collaboration with Watsky, 24 hours ago around 3am Kate revealed the film for her own single, titled after exactly the same hour. So in tribute to those night owls amongst you, we’re sneaking it up on the blog at the same time. Judging from our daily twitter feed there’s an awful lot of insomniacs out there, the ‘Aaargghh can’t sleep’ tweet being almost as popular as the cute pet / here’s a food-porn photo of my lunch / expensive cup of coffee. Of course we all know that these food tweets are basically just signifiers of status aren’t they? Witness the hundreds of photos on Valentine’s Day of couples romantic meals, most of which appeared to be steak, cooked by a man. It’s his equivalent of doing a barbeque in the summer isn’t it?

Anyway, we digress. So here’s Kate. At 3am. Eating ice cream and decapitating teddy bears. Why? Because a relationship has gone wrong. It’s a warning to all of you who tweeted / uploaded to Instagram a photo of your Valentines meal. No matter how blissfully perfect everything seems now, it doesn’t always work out.
